Abstract

Fibroblasts in the intermediate layer of comb dermis of intact single combed White Leghorn cocks and testosterone-injected capons, all 82 days of age, were divided into three types, namely A, B and C, according to the ultrastructure of these cells. All the fibroblasts in the same tissue from capons were type C. 2. The Golgi complex and the rough endoplasmic reticulum were well developed in type A and type B fibroblasts. The latter organelle in type A fibroblasts was in the form of long parallel cisternae spaced a uniform distance apart, while that in type B fibroblasts was extremely distended, branched and anastomosed, containing flocculent material in the cisternae. In type C fibroblasts, both the Golgi complex and the rough endoplasmic reticulum were poor.
